Subcompact? What do you consider compact over there? Camrys or something?
A Corolla or 8th gen Civic is a compact car. Camry's a mid-sizer.
Like Adunaphel said, they're not praised for quality here either, but probably every single example goes easily beyond 200k miles with some service.
If this one was more bashing GM, then say it. It takes all your creditability away when you bash every single European car manufacturer by saying "Astra...there you see, european build quality!". And by the way, the OP never actually said why the car is in need of a replacement ? it might be technically totally okay!
If it is in 'desperate need of replacement' typically it's not okay.
rick's Saturn? Yeah, that's 'in desperate need of replacement.'
Also, I bash EVERY car manufacturer when they make what I consider to be crap. Even Jaguar, Nissan, Ford, Honda, etc., etc. Or were you too busy steaming about my comments regarding German makers to notice my "Jaguar, WTF" posts? Or my "Hey, you should buy certain Mercedes" posts? I've got a lot of those.
